Aphasic, right-hemisphere-damaged, and non-brain-damaged subjects heard short narrative paragraphs. Each paragraph contained four main ideas and one or more details related to each main idea. After each paragraph was presented, subjects' comprehension and retention of main ideas and details from the paragraph were tested. Some of the test items directly restated information from paragraphs and others paraphrased information from paragraphs. All groups of subjects remembered main ideas better than they remembered details, and no group of subjects was significantly affected by whether test items directly or indirectly stated information from paragraphs. Disfluent aphasic and right-hemisphere-damaged subjects' overall paragraphs comprehension scores were not significantly poorer than those of non-brain-damaged subjects. Fluent and mixed aphasic subjects' overall paragraph comprehension scores were significantly worse than those of non-brain-damaged and right-hemisphere-damaged subjects. Token Test and Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination auditory comprehension scores did not predict aphasic subjects' paragraph comprehension scores. right-hemisphere-damaged subjects' overall paragraph comprehension scores were not significantly those of non-brain-damaged and right-hemisphere-damaged subjects. Token Test and Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination auditory comprehension scores did not predict aphasic subjects' paragraph comprehension scores.
失语症患者、右脑损伤患者和非脑损伤受试者听取了简短的叙述段落。每个段落包含四个主要观点以及与每个主要观点相关的一个或多个细节。在呈现完每个段落后，测试受试者对段落中主要观点和细节的理解与记忆情况。一些测试项目直接复述段落中的信息，另一些则对段落信息进行释义。所有受试者组对主要观点的记忆都比对细节的记忆更好，并且没有一组受试者受到测试项目是直接还是间接陈述段落信息的显著影响。非流畅性失语症患者和右脑损伤患者的段落总体理解分数并不显著低于非脑损伤患者。流畅性失语症患者和混合性失语症患者的段落总体理解分数显著低于非脑损伤患者和右脑损伤患者。代币测验和波士顿诊断性失语症检查的听觉理解分数并不能预测失语症患者的段落理解分数。右脑损伤患者的段落总体理解分数并不显著低于非脑损伤患者和右脑损伤患者。代币测验和波士顿诊断性失语症检查的听觉理解分数并不能预测失语症患者的段落理解分数。
